On the first point, what I'm looking for is flexibility and speed of deployment.

On the second point, I guess that they'll end up doing that too. When they launched they made a point of running your containers on your instances as a security thing. Over time I think they'll trust Docker enough to ignore it.

So you still miss out on deploy speed: when extra capacity needs another EC2 instance, you wait for virtual firmware, kernels, and init before you can get a new container started.

Agreed re: 2
